SAY HELLO TO THE TOUGHEST, SAFEST, MOST STABLE PIPELAYER ON EARTH. HARD TO THE CORE Brandt's all-new Hard To The Core pipelayers are the toughest on earth; built to succeed in the most challenging conditions. Our unique design pairs the performance advantages of the John Deere 1050K's hydrostatic drive and low center-of-gravity with Brandt's superior boom-side load-winch configuration. The result is unrivalled load control and operator visibility through all boom angles, allowing you to get the load placed exactly where it needs to be- every time.
The result is the safest, best-handling, and most stable machine on the jobsite. Because, when all is said and done, nobody works harder than Brandt to keep you productive and profitable.
Superior Stability. The BPL170K delivers maximum productivity and integrated technology to take on any terrain with ease. With 177,000 lbs of maximum lift capacity at four feet, the unit delivers the power and capacity to install large diameter pipe effortlessly. And, the symmetrical winch design optimizes visibility to the right-of-way while simultaneously delivering a lower center of gravity for unparalleled stability.
Completing the package is our best-in-class Brandt SmartLift™ system which offers dynamic stability feedback to ensure that the operator can constantly monitor lift capacity, slope, and pitch. In addition, load sensors are hardwired to the tractor for reliable feedback, and can be upgraded to premium camera and radar packages if desired.
Up to 10,584 in2 total ground contact, based on your track shoe configuration, minimizes the right-of-way impact, reducing soil contamination and the time required to smooth over ruts.
Winch placement optimizes operator sightlines for easier positioning and ensures better tracking to reduce cable wear.
Symmetrical winch-mount locations deliver equal weight distribution and a lower center of gravity for increased stability and easier positioning for specialized pipe-specific attachments.
Boom length options of 24’, 28’, 32’, 36’ available.
Hook speed of up to 46 ft/min.
